Back in the room, he released Umbreon and Electivire. Umbreon ran onto the bed to play, enjoying the mattress's springiness.
He took out a pair of scissors, preparing to trim Electivire's fur. Its fur had grown far too long. Previously, he had only trimmed the fur around its eyes so Electivire could see clearly. Now that he had time, he could cut it all short.
